Jason Kelce may have thought he was simply sharing a funny Kirk Herbstreit story, but tagging his wife, Kylie Kelce, suddenly changed the mood around the post. The unusual claim about having boys gave NFL fans plenty to joke about, especially with Jason and Kylie raising four daughters.
Before long, fans were less interested in Herbstreit’s claim and more curious about Kylie’s possible reaction.
Jason Kelce’s Tagging Move Brings Kylie Into the Conversation
Herbstreit recently shared a story about a supposed method that he believes helped him and his wife have four sons. The ESPN analyst explained that his wife, who was a gymnast, performed a handstand after intercourse because she had heard that male sperm would move faster.
“My wife was a gymnast… When we were done with what we’ve done, she heard that the male sperm would go faster, so she would do a handstand, go up on the bed, and we are 4 for 4,” Herbstreit said.
There is no medical evidence that such a position determines a baby’s biological sex. There is also no credible evidence that it improves the chances of becoming pregnant. Still, the story reached Jason, who shared the clip on X and tagged Kylie’s “Not Gonna Lie With Kylie Kelce” podcast account.

That was enough for fans to turn the post into a warning for the former Eagles center. One fan wrote, “Don’t come crying to us when she beats ur (expletive).” Another added, “Oh NOOOOOO. Whatever happens next, it’s on you, my guy.”
Oh NOOOOOO. Whatever happens next, it’s on you my guy.

The reactions also touched on a familiar subject surrounding the Kelce family. Jason and Kylie already have four daughters, Wyatt, Elliotte, Bennett, and Finnley. While fans have often wondered whether they would try again for a boy, Kylie has indicated that she is happy with their family.
Jason discussed the possibility during a 2025 appearance on TNT’s “The Steam Room.” He made it clear that another child would be a joint decision rather than a personal mission to have a son.

“That’s not my decision. I’ve got the easy part, I’ll keep doing my part,” Kelce said.
He also said Kylie might be finished having children and noted that the fourth pregnancy had been difficult for her. Jason then put the idea of having a boy into perspective after four daughters.
“I don’t think it’s necessarily if we want to have a boy because at the end of the day, we’re not shooting with good percentages,” he said. “Do we want to have another child? And if we want to have another one, we’ll do that.”
Meanwhile, fans kept the jokes coming. One person wrote, “Don’t believe the hype. Tried this and ended up with triplet girls.”

Another questioned the source of the advice, writing, “Getting medical opinions from this group (is) diabolical.”
The one reaction captured what many fans were waiting for: “Can’t wait for Kylie’s response to this!”

With Kylie known for her direct style, Jason’s decision to tag her may have created the funniest part of the story.
